By John Pilger, published 26/2/2010

Violence has failed to achieve Israel’s ends and has produced worldwide revulsion.

Brushbred,you are very mentally astute for a 90 yr old.
Have a look at Architects and Engineers for 911 truth.They were here in Sydney in Nov last year and are a very credible organisation.

The truth about 911 is the pivotal point that will stop this insanity.In my view we are headed for a serious war unless the truth is revealed. http://www.ae911truth.org/

Bushbred:

No, I'm not Israeli, not a drop of Jewish blood. Fourth generation (Anglo-)Australian, in Brisbane. But I despise anti-Semitism, especially when it masquerades as compassion for the dispossessed and those ‘dispossessed’ are themselves full of racism (believing and teaching their kids that notorious Tsarist forgery, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion).

If there were genuine compassion for the dispossessed Palestinians, one might reasonably expect it from the rest of the Muslim world. But where is it?

The Arabs own all the territory from Mauretania to Iraq and Oman. Where are the offers of resettlement? Where is the economic aid from the owners of the greatest oil riches on the planet? Why do all the Arab countries within cooee of Palestine regard the Palestinians as lowest of the low, untouchable? Why is Egypt building a massive wall between it and the Gaza strip? Who, by their actions, have demonstrated any real concern whatever for the Palestinians? Certainly neither Yasser Arafat, nor Hamas. What has either done for the Palestinians that is constructive?

Arjay:

Conspiracy theories about 9/11 are infantile, laughable. Tariq Ali, in 'The Clash of Fundamentalisms', chapter 'Letter to a young Muslim', writes:

"I've met many of our people in different parts of the world since 11 September. One question is always repeated: 'Do you think we Muslims are clever enough to have done this?' I always answer 'Yes'. Then I ask who they think is responsible, and the answer is invariably 'Israel'. Why? 'To discredit us and make the Americans attack our countries.' I gently expose their wishful illusions, but the conversation saddens me. Why are so many Muslims sunk in this torpor? Why do they wallow in so much self-pity? Why is their sky always overcast? Why is it always someone else who is to blame? Sometimes when we talk I get the impression that there is not a single Muslim country of which they can feel really proud. ... We are in desperate need of an Islamic Reformation that sweeps away the crazed conservatism and backwardness of the fundamentalists ..."

From Bushbred:

I sincerely Apologise, Glorfindel, however, it is interesting that you have not mentioned the UN, or its original plans when whom we might call certain Nordic countries were involved.

I might mention again, Glorfindel, that there is still a lot of admiration for the determination of the new Israelies, but many academics do fear that Israel right now with so much deadly power at hand, might easily begin a Third World War, especially with China now apparently backing Iran.

It must be remembered also that the Russians are helping Iran with atomic construction, etc.

Regards, BB. WA.

Bushbred,
The USA and France also used to help Iran with the provision and development of their nuclear industry, just as Israel was a partner with Iran in developing certain long-range missile systems.

Circumstances change.
